Can a genetic test prevent risk in psychedelic therapy? These companies are betting on it:

“The main risk there is that there's a possibility of a cardiac adverse event that would be dangerous for a person if they have a heart condition. It's rare, but there are cases of people having a heart attack on high doses of psychedelics,” says Garcia-Romeu.

While short-term risk can be dealt with by on-call professionals, the most serious psychological risk in psychedelics is related to mental health symptoms that can prevail after the psychedelic experience is over. This type of screening allows researchers to screen out people who would be at a higher risk of continued difficulties with their mental health after a psychedelics experience.Entheon’s genetic test kit was developed by its wholly-owned subsidiary, HaluGen Life Sciences Inc., in partnership with Lobo Genetics Inc.

The genetic test is also paired with surveys that analyze risk factors based on lifestyle and family history. The companies recommend that the results are handed to a health professional, in order for them to use them as a tool for measuring risk in a patient looking to embark in psychedelics-assisted psychotherapy.As psychedelics decriminalization becomes more widespread, this type of testing could find its main value outside of the doctor’s office.

A number of U.S. jurisdictions have already decriminalized the use of some psychedelic substances. In Oregon, where all drugs are decriminalized, a two-year program was set in motion last November to develop a system of licensed psilocybin therapy providers. “We think it's very important that anyone that is about to embark on, ultimately a very profound experience, understands their risk factors,” says Entheon’s Timothy Ko.
